![Gold Star Critiquer/Gold Star Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 1318 W: 52 N: 1782]](http://i1.treknature.com/misc/g-g-g.gif) (5276) | In spring we have flowers and fresh green leaves, in summer there are insects and butterflies, in autumn we have fungi and golen leaves, and in winter we have beautiful snowy landsapes. Each season has its beauties and its photographic opportunities for nature lovers.
But this year there is no snow at all, just bare trees and grey sky - so sad ! There is not much to photograph, and I had to look for some time before finding something interesting that would be suitable for TN !
Finally I found these beautiful lichens. They were growing on the ruins of a medieval castle (we have lots of them in Alsace), on a very famous stone called "Grès des Vosges". It is a pink or orange stone, and it is very common in my region - it can be found everywhere, and it has lots of different uses.
If you want to see another picture of this stone you can have a look at my WS, the shapes are quite interesting.
A for the lichens, they are very common on this stone, but I have no idea of their name. I just loved the shapes and the colors, and they look beautiful on the pink stone. It is a very simple picture but I hope you will like it ! |
